| 0:00.0 | Welcome in everybody to Fancy Pros. This is the Fantasy baseball podcast. It's me Joey |
| 0:05.0 | P. Joe P. Zapier and you are in for a treat today back by popular demand. Here we go. It's |
| 0:12.6 | the 2023 version of the great pitching debate and who better to talk about this. Then our |
| 0:19.4 | boys Nick Pollock and Alex fast from pitcher list. Two of the best in the business. These |
| 0:25.0 | guys eat, sleep, and breathe pitching and they have great contempt for one another, which |
| 0:30.2 | is why they're friends and why they are back here on the program in gentlemen. I went |
| 0:35.1 | back and listened to last year's so much good advice. This was so close to at the end that |
| 0:41.4 | Nick Pollock did pull it out. And you know what the tie breaking question was whether or |

| 1:33.1 | You were very close to having a child. You've now had said child. I know that sometimes changes |
| 1:39.5 | a man. Do you think it's changed you enough that you're ready here to to throne the reigning |
| 1:44.4 | champion here? Nick Pollock, do you think that experience has kind of changed you as a human |
| 1:49.1 | as an analyst as well? It's given me perspective. It's given me wisdom. It's made me a lot |
